Summary of Test

24、Method4.1 A sample of known weight or volume is placed into asample boat and introduced at a controlled rate into a hightemperature combustion tube. There the sample is combustedin an oxygen rich pyrohydrolytic environment. The gaseousby-products of the combusted sample are trapped in anabsorption m

25、edium where the hydrogen halides (HX) formedduring combustion disassociate into their respective ions, X-while the sulfur oxides (SOX) formed are further oxidized toSO42-in the presence of an oxidizing agent. An aliquot ofknown volume of the absorbing solution is then automaticallyinjected into an i

26、on chromatograph (IC) by means of a sampleinjection valve. The halide and sulfate anions are separated onthe anion separation column of the IC. The conductivity of theeluent is reduced with an anion suppression device prior to theion chromatographs conductivity detector, where the anions ofinterest

27、are measured. Quantification of the fluorine, chlorineand sulfur in the original combusted sample is achieved by firstcalibrating the system with a series of standards containingknown amounts of fluorine, chlorine and sulfur and thenanalyzing unknown samples under the same conditions as thestandards

28、. The combined system of pyrohydrolytic combustionfollowed by ion chromatographic detection is referred to asCombustion Ion Chromatography (CIC).5. Significance and Use5.1 The total fluorine, chlorine and sulfur contained inaromatic hydrocarbon matrices can contribute to emissions, beharmful to many

29、 catalytic chemical processes, and lead tocorrosion. This test method can be used to determine totalsulfur and halogens in aromatic hydrocarbons and their mix-tures. The results can be used for compliance determinationswhen acceptable to a regulatory authority using performancebased criteria.6. Inte
